Don't tell me, let me guess. She'd also rather be pretty than smart.

Trump and trumpists hate Swift because she was Time magazine's 2023 Person of then Year, and they think that should go to Donnie Depends every year.

And then she endorsed Biden in 2020!
Yeah, they invested a lot of emotional energy and identity in her and then she rejected them... and we all know how well these people handle rejection...

Watched bits of Fox off and on. F&F Weekend this morning, I couldn't follow their logic, but the three co-hosts went on and on and on and one about Obama being the big bad guy behind some kind of crap I didn't understand. 20+ times I think his name was mentioned, but more for Michelle. Some evil cabal being in charge of Biden or some such nonsense. Don't quote me, I fell back asleep.

Just now decided to switch over to Fox to see how they're reacting to this new border bill and Levin is like bat-:shit: crazy. Dunno if this is live or pre-taped, but he's screaming about the traffickers and SLAVERY! SLAVERY! My poor ears, do I really think he cars about the abused kids?

Perhaps she's just ignorant.

oreo
A deragotry term for an African-American who is presumed to have rejected the values and traditions of their race and ethnicity, and instead has adopted the norms of dominant European-American culture. The characteristics of one defined as "oreo" are nebulous in that many can be attributed to existing African-American culture, or the culture of recent African immigrants. Some cite higher education status, middle-class and upper-class income, and conservative dress as means of identifying "an oreo." The main assumption is that this person has rejected African-American racial identity. :snippity:

FWIW, not that it matters, but it turns out the dude they roughed up wasn't even a migrant, it was just some dude that lives in the Bronx and had the misfortune of crossing paths with the *cough* Angels.

There used to be this guy Mark Dice, every year he would pick out random stuff from the halftime show and claim it was a satan ritual. Then he would go on infowars and let Alex Jones rant about it for a while.

He is still around, and still railing against the Super Bowl on Truth.

I've never heard of link between intelligence and dementia before, have I just missed it or is he making it all up?

I'll go out on a limb and say he's making it all up. And tfg's parents/parent had dementia, a factor not in his favor.

So the answer looks like...sort of?
In addition, highly intelligent people have been found, on average, to show clinical signs of Alzheimer's later than the general population. Once they do, they decline much faster. Thought to reflect their greater mental reserves, this different pattern may call for a different approach to diagnosis.

Just my arrogant opinion, but from what I saw in my medical career, smarter people are more likely to use it, instead of lose it. But the part of deteriorating quicker is new to me, although it does seem logical. Once they can’t use it, perhaps the losing it quicker is because there’s more to lose?

Lets track back. The idea that Trump is more intelligent than Biden is laughable. But it shows that the whole needling at Trump about his dementia is having an effect that they are desperately trying to distract away from the accusations that Trump is senile.

Trump is senile.

Like I said elsewhere, it is difficult to overstate the size of hole this blows in their boat. Over two thousand times they repeated this falsehood!

Too bad nobody cares. In trumplandia, I mean.
